I’m sure many of you received various sports gadgets over the last few weeks as part of the holidays. But for those unlucky elves who received a half-eaten gel packet in their Christmas stocking from their not-so-significant others, I’ve got a festivus of a present for you: This giveaway.
The winner will get a $500 credit to CleverTraining.com, my most excellent partner in this giveaway crime. By supporting the site through Clever Training you also can save 10% on basically anything they sell. If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the new Garmin Fenix3 to a BSX Gen2 Insight to a random pair of socks to the 4iiii’s Precision Power Meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat.
How to enter:
Simply leave a short description of what product you’d get and why (but don’t worry, you can change your mind later if you win).
The reason you need a short description of ‘’why’ is that if you just put a simple product name (i.e. A360), you’ll likely get caught up in my SPAM filters. And nobody wants to be sandwiched between two pieces of SPAM. Got all that?
Good luck!
The giveaway entry period will run through Thursday, December 31st, 2015 until 11:59PM US Eastern Time. Winner will be selected randomly. One entry per person. The selected product/products will then be ordered immediately and shipped immediately, assuming they’re in stock.

OOOH definitely a new trainer! or maybe the Fenix 3! or no maybe a new power meter, just can’t decide :-)
I’d put the prize towards a power meter!
I would used the money to buy a Garmin edge 520
I’d be getting the Powertap P1s….I love their compatibility and ease of use.
I wanted Garmin Edge 1000. Maybe this time ;)
I would love to buy a power meter
Powertap G3 wheels and hub. I really want carbon clinchers that I can switch between tri bike and road bike and use as race wheels.
A new stationary trainer. The one I have is quite hard to set and use for home training in rainy day!
À tacx smarttrainer in order to simulate real world situations when the weather isn’t allowing to get on the road
I would upgrade my Garmin 910xt , probably to a 920 as a triarhlon bunde wirh the new swim hrm belts
I’d put it towards a power tap or bepro pedals. Here’s to high hopes
I’d get myself a Garmin Edge 520, my old “dumb” cycling computer just literally broke during the annual battery change.
I would get fenix 3 and withings scale WS-50.
Wahoo kickr or snap so I could have a wireless smart trainer… ???
A wahoo kickr. This woud really make my indoor training less boring.
I’d get the new Garmin Fenix, because I’m a watch-a-holic and this one looks like one I’d really enjoy. Happy Festivus!
Powertap P1 pedals just because I’m a numbers geek and I want to see my left right power numbers :)
A new set of Spinergy wheels!
I’d probably go with a Garmin Forerunner 235. I’ve been using the VivoSmart since it came out, but the HR-monitoring capabilities make me want it bad
I would like a Garmin edge 520 and radar to replace my mio/magellan cyclo 505 which is now refusing to sync via wifi (cables are so yesterday…)
I’d go for a power meter – cycling is my weak spot and I would love to improve it
1) Clevertraining VIP to save $$$ on all my toys! Oh yeah – and a Garmin FR630 w/ HRM strap.
I’d get an Edge bike computer of one flavor or another. Or maybe a 920xt Tri Bundle for swimming more.
I would get a Garmin 235 as I really want the extra features that it offers above my Vivoactive and Garmin 220 along with the HR monitor built in!
Would love a garmin 520 bundle!
I want to get a Fenix3. My forerunner 310xt doesn’t hold a charge like it used to.
I would like a Garmin FR 235 …because it seems to fit the bill for my needs!
I’d love to get a Garmin 920XT watch. It’s a solid accessory to have as far as training and really amplifies what data junkies are looking from month to month.
I would love to have the Vivofit2 because I’m ready to upgrade my Fitbit flex.
Wahoo Kickr – would make winter training so much nicer!
A Garmin Forerunner 630 please. To help me through the dark times of injury induced non-running for the next few months – it would be the perfect incentive to get back into training afterwards.
I’ve just started commuting daily and the Garmin Varia Radar would give me advance warning of traffic on busy roads.
Power meter. Just building my new carbon bike and this would be welcome addition.
It’s starting to get cold, so Kickr for me!
Powertap P1, a versatile power meter to let me finally indulge my inner geek on the bike.
The Garmin 920XT for me! My 910 is on it’s way out……so time for an update???
Garmin Varia Radar, because … I really need another gadget to remember to charge.
A BSX GEN 2 As it now seems to have a real use
Garmin 520 to go along with my new road bike!
Power meter for accurate data
I think I would get something for my bike for my painful training sessions this winter.
FENIX 3
Rose Gold
Because its beautiful made for a woman and it does everything!! RUN, BIKE, SWIM, CLIMB, SKI, MOUNTAINEER, HIKE, TRACK WAYPOINTS, ALITMETER, BAROMETER, COMPASS
Can I have two? One for me and one that I then convince the wife that by buying hers I got mine free? I would have to go for the Garmin 630 Forerunner for moi and the 230 Forerunner for the lady in my life. Why, well I have a perfectly good 910XT, but just look at the new bright colours!!! Gorgeous!!!!
I’d get me the Garmin Vector 2 for next season!
Ooooo! 4iiii Precision power meter for sure. I also could waste a bunch of money on the Wahoo Kickr Snap but Clever Training doest have that.
Since I’m a Garmin guy, I would get the Forerunner 230. As you have said, it is the best bang for the buck running GPS watch on the market. Now, if I change my mind and want to buy more than one thing, I might go with the Forerunner 25. It just works [like my FR15]. I would then probably get my wife one of the Vivofit models.
Either a FR920XT or a Fenix3. Thanks
Ale
I would get some type of power meter. Just started with the Kickr Snap and i would like to have power data from outside rides as well.
Power Meter!
A Garmin Fenix 3, a nice GPS-watch and the credit is back to zero.
I’d definitely buy me some pedal-based powermeters. Either the powertap p1 or bepro. I like the fact I can easily move them to my new bike. If I’d ever get the cash together for that.
920XT Black Tri bundle, because Garmin is my prefered watch, I love this Products. Or maybe Garmin 630.
Thanks you.
Garmin 520. Really want that.
Definitely would have to be the forerunner 630 for me. Cool bit of tech
Smart trainer. Not that I expected one, but it would’ve been great!
Would love to get a Wahoo KICKR trainer of some sort SNAP would be great too
I would definitely go for the Garmin FR235. I have the FR225 now and although its a great watch, the 235 is everything I wished the 225 was.
I’d love a Garmin Forerunner 920XT. I’m still using the 310XT, and I think it might be time for an upgrade soon.
I think I’m trading my bike shoes and bib shorts in for a swimsuit and goggles in 2016, so I’d go for the ROKA Maverick wetsuit to better prepare myself for open water swim competitions. Let’s do it!
Garmin Fenix 3. I have the 2 and love it. Need the newer one.
I’m thinking $500 US (or 1500 Can$) would go well towards a Power2Max power meter.
And Thanks, when can i expect it?
Would love to have a 4iiii power meter.
Fenix3 so I can stop getting lost when hiking! Lol
I’d get a Garmin Fenix 3, hoping to get back into running in early 2016 after a back injury that limited my running for most of 2015.
A GoPro Hero 4 Silber would be great to record all my sporting adventures! Hmm or a Power Meter.
Keep up the great work!
Fenix 3. Becouse it does everything what I do.
Hi,
I would buy something bike related, maybe the Garmin Edge 520 or the 4iii precision power meter. Or who knows… when i start to navigate through clever website.
Nothing like a new Garmin 630 for some New Year’s motivation!
4iiii right side or the wahoo elemnt.
I would use It for p1’s, I need power real bad
One of them fancy arm based gizmos to track where the satellites are and stay under cover
I’d probably go for a suunto ambit3 sport…
I’d be looking at a power meter of some sort. I’ve been looking at the Powertap C1 and G3, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. I’ve heard lots of great things about training with power, especially when on the trainer, rather than speed and heart rate and I’m ready to make the jump.
I would have the Garmin 235. The reason being it’s been a hellish day and I’m not myself. Normally, I would not be concerned with such material pocessions but at the moment the above device would fill my heart (or at least monitor it) until next Xmas.
A Power Meter. Most likely from stages.
I’d use this for a new bike computer,
A garmin Edge 520 because my old 500 is holding together with duck tape :) in
I’d get the Fenix 3 as my Ambit 2 is on it’s last legs!
I was really holding out for Santa to bring me a Garmin Varia radar rearlight. And he didn’t. Santa doesn’t love me anymore! He wants me to get run over by a truck!
Quarq Riken for me, por favor! Would love to see how many massive watts I put out during my sprint for 31st place.
Kickr since there is an ice storm outside right now.
I think i would go for a Forerunner 630 or a Fenix 3.
Something from Suunto. Just cool looking watches, super durable, with tons of functionality.
I’d get a power meter so I could train more efficiently which makes more time for the family.
I would probably get the FR235 to replace my aging 610.
Garmin Fenix 3 I guess
I would love a Forerunner 630 because I’m a running data freak!!!
Id like a 920xt. Cause i think it Will make me a lot faster ?
I’d need a powermeter, 4iii precision I would say.
I would get a Fenix 3. My Forerunner 405 is still working, but I would use the Fenix new features!
I am not going to lie, i did get what i wanted. A fenix 3 for christmas ! i would get my wife a new watch, maybe fenix 3 white as a gift.
I’d get the new Powertap pedals. Think that is the way to go this year.
fenix 3 because i need big watch to highlight my skinny arms
4iiii Precision Power Meter
Some PowerTap P1 pedals.
I would order a pair of Newtons, Innov8s and maybe even try a Garmin watch. The why is because you can never go wrong with having extra shoes and it is about time to update my watch to one with a heart rate monitor.
I would buy abother quarq power meter. already have one for my road bike, need one for the time trial bike now too! different bottom brackets mean I can’t switch them around.
I’d get a 4iiii power meter; Mrs. Clause opted for the item above it on the list, a Cycliq Fly6
Garmin f235, because it has all off the features I want ads I’m tired of wearing a hr strap
Garmin Fenix 3. Currently a cyclist. Looking forward to start with triathlon in 2016.
